Life goes on

Loving so freely is a blessing and a curse
My heart gets wounded so often but what would be worse? To see beauty in everything or feel nothing at all
A life without love is no life at all
Id rather live with the pain of losing all I hold dear
 Than to have a cold heart out of what? Fear?
So I cry for the love that goes unrequited
Until the next time, I'll keep on fighting
I made a promise to myself to always be true
So I'll continue my journey with my love for you
I'll share my love with family and friends
But 1st I must learn to love myself again
Take time to appreciate the life God gave me
And trust in the end only I can save me
My strength is my power my feelings are set
I live by my motto to live without regret

I agree, a life without any love whatsoever would be a terribly lonely life, Sarah.
However, there are many different kinds of love so it would depend completely on one's perspective.
There's familial love, or the type of love reserved for our families.
There is unconditional love—the kind of love we have for our children and pets.
But I have no use at all for the kind of love one man shares with one "special" woman.
It never works, not for very long. One party becomes bored with the other and before you know it feelings get hurt.
Friends with benefits—that's all I need.
But...to each their own.
Nicely penned.

Thanks for the comments, I agree on so many forms of love but one true love can exist, with enough patience and willingness to accept another completely. I'm lucky enough to be blessed with parents who unquestionably love each other deeply after 40 years of marriage and I refuse to lose hope of finding the same love myself. Respect to you though it's not for everyone. Some people just work better alone and that is another form of love. To love oneself 1st is the most important love of all.

You're very welcome, Sarah.

You're young; for you it's still a possibility.
Best of luck,

The poem made me think but I still can't change my mind on the matter,I live alone now but have a son who I brought up singlehandedly and love him unconditionally,he has moved away for work but I have never hankered for the average 2.4 children,holiday in the sun for a fortnight a year and respectable job with a wife,it just doesn't work for me,good poem though

Respect to you and I do feel at peace on my own. If we all shared the same ideals the world would be pretty dull.
I shared my poem on a whim, I wrote it last year when I was in a dark place. I have a much healthier outlook now. 
I haven't lost hope of love but it's no longer my main goal in life.

Glad your feeling better,I too used to crave love but I realised I already had it from my son,he's moved away for work now and I miss him but we stay in contact everyday, I am at peace now that everything is falling into place for him and there is less worry,I know that I am not alone and have got plenty of good friends,that's all I need at the moment but who knows what's next

I'm sorry Sarah but how many times have we heard all of these semantics?
We need to move on to another level whether it be possible or not.

I had to Google the meaning of semantics so I'm not best placed to comment. 
thanks for taking the time to read though.
